RFS: bmake -- NetBSD make
Hello, I am looking for a sponsor for my package 'bmake'. * Package name: bmake Version : 20110622-1 Upstream Author : Simon J. Gerraty * URL : http://www.crufty.net/help/sjg/bmake.htm * License : BSD Section : devel It builds this binary package: bmake - NetBSD make The upload would fix these bugs: #476267, #627983. The original packaging was done by NetBSD developer Aleksey Cheusov. Together with Jeroen Schot we're working on this package maintainance. This package is important as pmake that's currently in Debian is too old and obsolete, and bmake's absense is preventing some software from entering Debian. The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/bmake - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/bmake/bmake_20110622-1.dsc Also, it's kept under version control here: http://anonscm.debian.org/hg/collab-maint/bmake I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. -- WBR, Andrew signature.asc Description: PGP signature

tkpath review
Hello Vitaly, I'm glad to see you're going to maintain tkpath, as it's really useful piece of software (and I thought of making a package myself once). However, your packaging ([1]) has some problems which would be good to fix. Also, I'm not a DD so I can't upload, sorry :) Well, let's start. Sure, that's not everything, but just things I could spot easily. i) debian/changelog: your entry must close an ITP bug (don't put xx there, open a real bug report; you can use reportbug program to simplify this). ii) Most probably you don't want to create a native package (read maintainer's documentation on this [2]), therefore the package's version should be 0.3.1-1. Please change debian/source/format too. iii) Your package build-depends on debhelper (>= 7.0.50~) but doesn't seem to actually use any features of it. I'd recommend you to actually use dh7's short form, which makes it possible to radically reduce the number of lines your debian/rules file. That also highlights your changes to the boilerplate rules file and makes them easy to spot. Also, if the build process changes in the future, the changes will be minimal. iv) Your debian/control says the package depends on '${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, tk8.5 , tcl8.5'. First, I'd remove the extra after tk8.5, but are you sure it's really 8.5? You'd better use ${tcl:Depends} and ${tk:Depends} and tcltk-depends helper from tk-dev package, on which you should build-depend if you use it. v) Also, in the same file you build-depend on tcl8.5-dev and tk8.5-dev. That means, I can't build the package if I have no 8.5 packages installed but I do have {tcl,tk}8.4-dev and {tcl,tk}8.6-dev. You should depend on tk-dev and tcl-dev. I'm pretty sure the package will build on 8.4 too, but please test and add versioned dependencies if it doesn't. vi) mv $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/usr/lib/* $(PDIR)/usr/lib/tcltk. This step is not needed AFAIK, the dirs file listing /usr/lib/tcltk is not as well. Looking at tclxml package, it works perfectly from /usr/lib/Tclxml3.x, so should tkpath. vii) You have debian/docs empty, but list doc/* in debian/rules as `dh_installdocs doc/*`. Please use debian/docs instead. viii) debian/control again. You have the following short description: 'It is an extension package to Tcl/Tk for the canvas widget'. Drop 'It is'. Just something like 'Tcl/Tk improved canvas widget' would be enough, I think. Also, remove ANNOUNCE stuff from the long description and clean it up a bit. ix) Vcs-* fields. Put your packaging under version control and upload it to Alioth using whatever VCS you like (it may be Git or Mercurial or anything else). There are some tools which simplify (or not really) the workflow when using VCS, you may be interested in using them. Then uncomment Vcs-* fields and put the actual URLs there. Don't forget to commit changes! x) After you fix the problems above, don't forget to run your packaging through lintian and fix at least the most important problems it indicates. Then, please read the Policy changelog, find out what's changed between 3.8.4 and 3.9.2 and determine if it concerns you. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Please keep the mailing list CC'ed (also, you may want to subscribe to it). When you have any progress, upload what you did to mentors/debexpo and post a message here.

You can also drop libid3 as it is now and write a wrapper around some better ID3 tagging library that has the same (or compatible) interface as libid3.

Hello. Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "twms". * Package name: twms Version : 0.01q-1 Upstream Author : Darafei Praliaskouski * URL : http://code.google.com/p/twms * License : GPL-3+ Section : science It builds these binary packages: twms - tiny web map service The package appears to be lintian clean. The upload would fix these bugs: 587522 I want this package in Debian, and I want to maintain it because many people (including me) use this quite often, as tWMS is useful enough. tWMS is most used as a caching proxy for WMS and TMS services. Most typical its usage is as follows: - Yahoo! aerial imagery is provided as a JavaScripted web service, not as WMS - JOSM, the Java OpenStreetMap editor, uses WMS - local tWMS instance can fetch imagery from Yahoo! and provide it as WMS The package is quite popular in the OpenStreetMap community. Also, I know author personally, so it's easy for me to contact upstream. The package can be found on alioth.debian.org: - Mercurial repository: http://hg.debian.org/hg/collab-maint/twms/ mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/twms - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/twms/twms_0.01q-1.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. Thank you very much. -- WBR, Andrew signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Fixed, but it worked, hmm, a little bit strange: it added a dependency on tcl, but haven't added a dependency on tcllib. The first is not necessary when the second present. But I left {$tcl:Depends} in place and just added tcllib manually. Not sure it's the best way, though. > * Note in debian/copyright that you're now maintaining the package.

RFS: tclxml
Hello. The previous maintainer on tclxml package orphaned it, while package has a bug rendering it completely unusable, and there's a new upstream version available with that bug fixed. I'd like to take over maintainance, and I need a sponsor for that. Package name: tclxml Version: 3.2-1 Homepage: http://tclxml.sourceforge.net/ Author: Steve Ball License: BSD-style Description: Tcl library for XML parsing TclXML provides event-based parsing of XML documents. The application may register callback scripts for certain document features, and when the parser encounters those features while parsing the document the callback is evaluated. The package is lintian-clean, even with --pedantic. The upload would fix these bugs: 519315, 540507 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tclxml - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tclxml/tclxml_3.2-1.dsc Thank you. -- WBR, Andrew signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
